WRP400
The WRP400 maintains the state of each call it terminates and makes the proper
reaction to user input events (such as on/off hook or hook flash). The WRP400 uses
the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) open standard, so there is little or no
involvement by a "middle-man" server or media gateway controller. SIP allows
interoperation with all ITSPs that support SIP.
The WRP400 is equipped with a full featured, fully programmable ATA that can be
custom provisioned within a wide range of configuration parameters. The
following sections describe the factors that contribute to voice quality:
•
"Supported Codecs," on page 29
•
"SIP Proxy Redundancy," on page 30

Supported Codecs
The WRP400 supports the following codecs:
•
G.711u (configured by default) and G.711a
G.711 (A-law and mμ-law) are very low complexity codecs that support
uncompressed 64 kbps digitized voice transmissions at one through ten 5 ms
voice frames per packet. This codec provides the highest voice quality and
uses the most bandwidth of any of the available codecs.
